2026 Winter Olympics medal count (Milano Cortina) â live updates
Last updated: Thursday, Feb. 12, 2026 at 9:49 a.m. ET
Top takeaway: Norway still leads on gold (7), but Italy now leads the Games in total medals (14) after another host-country gold on Thursday. Team USA is sitting on 4 gold medals and 13 total medals as the table tightens behind Norway.
Biggest movers today:
-
Italy: Federica Brignone won womenâs super-G gold, a massive table-changer for the host nation and a signature âwhy today?â medal moment.
-
Australia: Cooper Woods won menâs moguls gold, Australiaâs first gold of these Games and an instant boost to the medal table (and a big U.S.-overnight headline).
-
Norway: still No. 1 on a standard gold-first medal table, even with Italy surging on totals.
Whatâs next (next 12 hours): More finals are coming across the snow and sliding sports, and those events can flip the top 10 quickly â especially if a country stacks multiple podiums in one session.

Why todayâs Italy surge matters: Brignoneâs super-G gold fuels the host push
Italyâs Feb. 12 headline is Federica Brignoneâs super-G gold, a win that adds to the host nationâs momentum â and keeps Italyâs total medal count climbing as the Games move deeper into the schedule.
From a medal-table perspective, itâs a classic âgold that moves youâ result: one gold can swing perception and positioning fast, even when several nations are piling up silvers and bronzes.
Italyâs push is also a reminder of how quickly the host narrative can change the standings: one Alpine gold plus a couple of podiums elsewhere can flip the âwhoâs leadingâ conversation in a single morning. For U.S. readers, the key is whether Team USA can convert its growing total into more golds as the next wave of finals hits.
Australiaâs first gold: Cooper Woods wins menâs moguls
One of the biggest ânew goldâ stories of the day: Australiaâs Cooper Woods took menâs moguls gold, edging Canadaâs Mikael Kingsbury on a tiebreak.
That single result matters for the table because itâs Australiaâs first gold of the Games, the kind of update readers look for when they search âmedal count todayâ and want to know what just changed.
